Notes

A scarce set issued between 1967-69 comprising:
1) Corgi 490 VW Breakdown Truck, shaped spun wheels with suspension. Occasional little mark to the paint and a small area where a minute amount of blue colour is showing due to contact with the deep blue inner. May be possible to carefully remove. With strung tow hook, red VW emblem, complete “RACING CLUB” paper labels on both sides. Both spare wheels are present. Note that the opening red plastic tool box has a broken hinge now, although it does come complete with all the chrome tools and chevron paper label.
